JOHANNESBURG – Parliament’s Home Affairs portfolio committee has denied allegations by Minister Malusi Gigaba that there’s a well-orchestrated political campaign against him, saying it is only holding the executive accountable.

This comes after Business Day reported on Monday that a draft report on state capture at Eskom compiled by the committee‚ names Gigaba as one of the government officials suspected of being “captured” and who should be criminally investigated.
